Starting point
You start out being herded from REE's( rescuing equines everywhere) holding pens into a large cattle trailer. Pregnant and nursing mares go into holding until,the foal is weaned. You cannot go further than being loaded up. If you are a pregnant or nursing mare you are being held in a small corral with straw, a little bit of hay, and water.
When everyone's on the same page then we can go further. If you are late to the rp, please wait for more new people and than start being loaded up.
Plot
A big cattle trailer stinking of dead or rotting things.
A small, steep, shoot leading up to the trailer.
(Pregnant or nursing mares) a small corral with straw, hay and water. No shade.

The pregnant mare ran down the small shoot into a corral her eyes wide and her rump stinging from the whips. She spun around at a clang as the door shut. She reared and called for her herd her eyes wide and fearful. She whipped around as the men laughed and headed to go sort and load more horses.

Cheif
Cheif would shake his head noticing the awful smell of the cattle trailer he stepped in to the trailer if he was younger he would have been freaking out but since he was older he was used to being loaded into a trailer he suddenly reared up as one of the men smacks his rump with a whip he bolted into the trailer noticing these men had no patience for slower and older horses .

Her head swiveled in the direction of yelling and hooves and called out throwing herself against the gate. She was fearful and close to labor but she kept throwing herself against the gate.
"That mare is causing such a Ruckus we might as well load her up or shoot her dead!" One snapped before herding the other horses in.

Cheif
Cheif would turn his head was this mare crazy she was in labour he thought as he pinned back his ears at the men "How dare you treat creatures this way" he said as he snorted he looked at the trailer floor it was filthy like it hadn't been cleaned in years his hooves were struggling to gain traction on the trailer's floor twice he almost slipped and fell into the filth

NPC HORSES
The horses ran up the steep ramp, some falling. They nickered and tried to get out but slipped and fell. Men roped her and dragged the mare towards a cleanish stall. "Clear! You can take them to the holding feedlot! The mare will come in a week or two." One shouted shutting the trailer gate and the semi started up and left.

"Dont worry, we will be ok" she turned and nickered to the scared mare, her voice jumped hiding her fear. She trotted over and scratched her wither her eyes closing in a sense of safety.

Whisper looked at the other mare she seemed kind what kind of place is this she thought as she shook her head a fly had landed on her nose she turned her head trying to brush the fly away with her tail but it wasn't long enough "Darn fly buzz off and bug something else" she said as she snorted the fly then flew off and she turned her head to face the other mare "I'm Whisper btw what's your name" she said to the other mare

"Im vital" she said her ears dropping with tiredness. She founded when she was faltered and led to a big stall that was clean, the new mare at her side. The man patted her side hard and left her halter on.she ate her grain and listened to the men talk in gruff voices. "Those mares are due soon. They can be shipped to mennagayla any day now." One said laughing. "The foals can be kept, and we can ship the mares in a week" one snickered

Whisper pinned her ears as she heard the men talking the foal was a halfbreed hardly worth top dollar what they were planing on doing was very cruel one of the men walked right up to Whisper and reached out a hand to pet her she reached out and bit him he screamed in pain he pulled out a whip with some kind of sharp edge Whisper tried to back up but he hit her with the whip before she could retreat a small cut on her nose was dripping blood "That will teach you to respect us little lady" said the man

"Are you ok!?" She asked rushing over. A man reached out patting her rump. She snorted in his face watching him back off in disgust.

The men came sprinting down the runway flags in hand. Vital and her little filly, violet (she was born) tailored down the runway. "whisper! Come on!" She nickered as she stumbled up the ramp. She nudged her filly up gently and waited for whisper.
